Play Solomons Key Online
Guide a wizard through tricky puzzle rooms, create and destroy blocks, find keys, dodge enemies, and unlock exits in this classic 1986 MS-DOS game.
Solomon's Key came out in 1986 for MS-DOS, published by Tecmo as part of their Classic Games series. It was a time when puzzle games were often simple, but this one stood out for its complexity and the way it demanded careful thought. You didn't just move from left to right; you had to outsmart each room.
You control a small wizard named Dana, navigating through a series of single-screen puzzle rooms. Your main goal is to find the key in each level to unlock the exit door, all while avoiding or defeating enemies like fireballs and floating eyes. The core mechanics involve creating and destroying blocks to build platforms, reach higher areas, or trap foes. The pacing is methodical, and the difficulty ramps up quickly, punishing rushed decisions. It feels like a constant, satisfying battle between your own cleverness and the game's devious design.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
